Requests authorization to create or delete a peer connection between the VPC for your
Amazon GameLift fleet and a virtual private cloud (VPC) in your AWS account. VPC peering
enables the game servers on your fleet to communicate directly with other AWS resources.
Once you've received authorization, call CreateVpcPeeringConnection to establish
the peering connection. For more information, see VPC
Peering with Amazon GameLift Fleets.

You can peer with VPCs that are owned by any AWS account you have access to, including
the account that you use to manage your Amazon GameLift fleets. You cannot peer with
VPCs that are in different regions.

To request authorization to create a connection, call this operation from the AWS
account with the VPC that you want to peer to your Amazon GameLift fleet. For example,
to enable your game servers to retrieve data from a DynamoDB table, use the account
that manages that DynamoDB resource. Identify the following values: (1) The ID of
the VPC that you want to peer with, and (2) the ID of the AWS account that you use
to manage Amazon GameLift. If successful, VPC peering is authorized for the specified
VPC.

To request authorization to delete a connection, call this operation from the AWS
account with the VPC that is peered with your Amazon GameLift fleet. Identify the
following values: (1) VPC ID that you want to delete the peering connection for, and
(2) ID of the AWS account that you use to manage Amazon GameLift.

The authorization remains valid for 24 hours unless it is canceled by a call to DeleteVpcPeeringAuthorization.
You must create or delete the peering connection while the authorization is valid.
